Are you having trouble visualizing exactly how a Blockchain works & what a nonce, hash, or a signed transaction looks like on the blockchain? Here are 2 of my favorite videos explaining it all in a very easy to learn way. Each time I review them it helps me understand even more!
Four ideologies shape the Bitcoin community. Maximalists bring conviction. Capitalists bring integration. Technologists bring innovation. Fundamentalists bring preservation. Bitcoin reaches its full potential when these four forces work in harmony.
Final call, $STRC shareholders. โณ

@ThCryptoCook@BitcoinNewsCom Why tf would you go to cash? If bitcoin is selling that means it's on SALE and you are getting it at a discount and you say "Nah, I'm good, I'll wait till it's back up at ATH?" oh my Lord.
@JohnnyAGI@ErikaC47 Cuz Erika said Charlie said these words to a private meeting of donors in Aspen in Aug 2025. So why is there a huge RED BANNER behind him in the video if he said it at a private donor meeting where donors say he never said it??? That's what the controversy is about.
having dinner at a hotel bar the other night struck up a conversation with a mid-level United Healthcare exec. he told me he puts over $300,000 a year on his company credit card just for entertaining clients. In case youโre wondering why you canโt afford health insurance
Nick Bilton walked into the 60 Minutes newsroom four days after Bari Weiss fired the people who built the show. He tried to pretend he didn't know about the firings. Scott Pelley, in front of the remaining staff, would not let that stand.
"She loves 60 Minutes," Bilton said. "She's murdering 60 Minutes," Pelley said back. "She does not love this place. She was brought in to kill it - and she's doing exactly that."
One of Weiss's lieutenants kept interrupting to say Pelley was being rude. Pelley kept going.
JVL's framing is the right one. The corrupter depends on the existing institution being too polite to say the obvious thing out loud. Christopher Wray resigned quietly to "preserve the integrity of the FBI." John Kelly gave print interviews after he left. Thom Tillis, John Cornyn, Mitch McConnell, Jim Mattis, Bill Barr - all of them saw it. All of them objected privately. None of them said it in the room where it was happening, to the person doing it, while the cameras were still running.
Pelley said it in the room. To the person's face. In front of witnesses. While he still worked there.
That is a different thing entirely. Not a memoir. Not an anonymous source in a tell-all. Not a carefully worded statement issued after the resignation letter was already filed. The true thing, said out loud, to the people who needed to hear it, at the moment it could still matter.
Authoritarianism counts on politesse. It counts on people deciding the fight isn't worth the awkwardness, the career risk, the label of being difficult. Scott Pelley decided it was worth it. The republic needs more of that calculation to come out the same way.
When the leader of a foreign country can write a letter to a U.S. Congressman telling him to put in our laws to more closely fuse our militaries AND THEY PASS IT, our country is in the hands of puppets and despots!!
Trump the idiot... thought that Massie, Cornyn and Cassidy were "immediately" "kicked out of Congress" after he defeated them in the GOP primaries.
He didn't realize they can still vote until the Christmas recess.
So did a lot of the MAGA morons.
The Revolt Inside 60 Minutes Just Got Worse.
Legendary correspondent Steve Kroft is now accusing CBS leadership of "journalistic interference."
His verdict?
"It was a slap in the face to everybody who has worked there."
Notice the pattern.
Scott Pelley says he was stonewalled.
Sharon Alfonsi says Pelley was fired for asking questions.
Now Steve Kroft says management is interfering with journalism.
At some point, this stops looking like a personnel dispute.
And starts looking like a newsroom rebellion.
